After her dominant 200 performance in the Pac 12 s Hannah Cunliffe runs a 23.30
Stevens and Washington punched their tickets in the 200.

Hopefully he will make himself proud upon return.

Jordan: "I can't waste chance"

head to the match play championship rounds. LSU will be their first opponent in match play. Duck Aaron Wise won the individual national championship which concluded today.

Hard not to admire him. No chest pounding or muscle flexing, just production. He carried them when Curry was out, and now when Curry has Kevin Durant guarding him. His Dad must be proud as can be.
4 star recruit who played at WSU. Oh yeah, and raised in Portland playing little league vs K Love. Wow!

Then again 2-1

Great season Oregon...too bad it had to come to an end tonight.

in the 200 runs a 20.62

in the 110 h running a 13.37

The West Regionals are at the University of Kansas.

They were able to get off a couple of events, but the day was called off due to the weather conditions. I think
that lightening probably the biggest problem.

Here is what he had to say to DSA after the Ducks offered: "definitely" interested in Oregon

no news is kind of bad news, Oregon used to look like the front runner for him, but doesn't even get a mention:

Ducks 6, Heels 7. Praying they both make the Maui finals. How's that for some respect? AZ, UCLA and Cal getting some too.

Night Football Games
The presidents and chancellors approved a recommendation from the Pac-12 Council to modify the Conference’s TV agreements with ESPN and FOX and reduce the number of Pac-12 Networks Saturday night football games (start time of 7 p.m. or later). Under the modification, a Pac-12 Network game can now start either at 2:30 p.m. or 6 p.m. local and overlap with an ESPN or FOX exclusive TV window. This change is expected to reduce the number of Pac-12 Networks night games by as many as four contests.

“The Pac-12 has some of the most loyal fans in college athletics and we appreciate our television partners working with us on this important issue for fans,” said Rob Mullens, University of Oregon athletic director. “The increased exposure and revenue from our contract with ESPN and FOX has been instrumental to our success, but we continue to work hard to minimize as much as possible the negative impact late start times have on our fans who travel great distances to see our teams in person."

Umm, so I guess moving it back an hour means it is no longer a night game? And this is only written as "can" not will, so they will still have 7pm and later start times. Oh well, guess it is sort of moving in the right direction.

Court and Field Storming
The presidents and chancellors also approved a recommendation from the Pac-12 Council to add an institutional fine schedule to the Conference court and field storming policy. Starting in the 2016-17 academic year, fines will be applied to institutions as follows: $25,000 for first offense, $50,000 for a second offense, and $100,000 for a third offense.

“The Pac-12 Council carefully considered this policy and its impact on our fans who loyally support our teams,” said Mike Williams, Director of Athletics at the University of California, Berkeley. “This enhanced policy underscores the importance our universities place on the safety and welfare of our student-athletes, officials and fans, and will allow us to educate staffs and fans on procedures going forward.”

Don't mind this, this has been in place for the SEC for a while and although fun for the students, provides extra security for the SA.

Pac-12 Networks & eSports
Finally, following an internal review of the growing interest amongst Pac-12 students in competitive video gaming, the presidents and chancellors approved Pac-12 Networks to commence eSports competitions with Pac-12 universities this upcoming year. Teams from campuses will participate based on a specific game, and the competitions will include head-to-head matchups in studios as well as a tournament in conjunction with a Pac-12 championship event. The game titles and event formats are still to be determined, but will be announced in the coming months.

Intercollegiate competition in egaming is in its initial stages, but Pac-12 universities are increasingly involved through passionate student groups competing in competitions with popular games. eSports is also closely tied to academic departments at Pac-12 universities such as computer science, visual and cinematic arts, engineering and others.

“eSports is a natural fit for many of our universities located in the technology and media hubs of the country,” said Scott. “Pac-12 Networks’ commitment to innovation as well as its natural tie to our universities and established media platform make it the perfect organization to develop the framework for eSports intercollegiate competition.”

Gamers unite! I'd like to think that is something I would have had a shot to play D1 in, since my ankles didn't want to hold up in HS.

Today, I continued the assault on Baylor football. Their lack of leadership is clearly evident and makes us ponder just how wrong Vince Lombardi was - winning is not the 'only thing' character is far more critical.

I opened with a great, great quote from Abraham Lincoln:


This says it all in my opinion. I have some friends still in Texas - and there are many people who judge Briles by how he treated them - and I get that, but the truth of the matter is that he and Starr failed the entire campus. They are supposed to be developing leaders, but they failed to lead by example.

Yes, today I use my words to maybe send my own little message. Will it get heard or seen outside of DSA? Difficult to say. What I can say is that I know for sure some executives at Nike will see the work, because my wife emails it to a couple of them - but this is an issue where sports, football in particular, can change the world if they have the integrity and character to do so. If we are to call football 'just a game' then we do a disservice to the impact and power its players and coaches have as leaders. It is more than just a game - and it's time that all of this money poured into the game reaps a benefit for all of society and not just a few.

If, as Abraham Lincoln implies, character is how you handle power, then it past the time for those in power to have the character to make a change for the better. That time has come and gone and they must not just respond to this crisis, but be proactive to change the manner in which athletics integrates with society.

NCAA is going to be so mad, Southern Miss will get the death penalty

Some highlights (didn't read the whole thing):

Multiple staff lying to NCAA investigators

• Lots of impermissible benefits to recruits and current players
• Falsification of ACT scores to get 3 players eligible
• Failure to monitor
• Multiple sports involved

I don't believe the newest info about Tunsil is even included in this report

Weren't we up there for a Baylor commit at one point? I thought he had an amish name but that's about all I can remember. Just wondering if the mess down there is going to be of benefit to us at all?
